Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game

Blue Star.

On the summit of the snow mountain.

Chen Lan looked at the array already drawn at his feet and nodded slightly, "Not bad, it's basically a one-to-one reproduction. Next, I just need to infuse Spiritual Qi, activate the array, and I can head to the Desolate Celestial Realm."

However, before that, he planned to disguise himself. He wasn't sure how many people he would encounter after arriving there. Ye Lan's reputation in the Desolate Celestial Realm was quite known; although he didn't know how many would recognize him, just in case, it was better to disguise himself. If someone recognized him, it would be troublesome.

With his strength, he could fight a Taoist Saint but not a Dao Emperor. He wasn't even a match against a Dao Emperor nine out of ten times. After all, he still didn't know the opportunity to break through to Dao Emperor.

What if one needed fifty Great Dao patterns at the Great Accomplishment stage to break through?

Just the thought of facing an enemy with fifty Great Dao patterns made his scalp tingle. He expected there wouldn't be much left of even a trace.

Moreover, he needed to leave behind a means of survival.

With this in mind, he took out the Undying Saint Body Essence Blood that had been stored in his storage ring for a long time. Although the Undying Saint Body was of little use now, and he hadn't had time to look for the last one, this drop of essence blood had other uses.

Snap.

With a snap of his fingers, a pure Life Dao Power appeared in his palm. He slowly integrated the Life Dao Power with the Undying Essence Blood. As they merged, he sensed an extremely vast life force, even able to hear the heartbeat!

Before long, looking at the reddish orb in his hand, Chen Lan smiled. The life force of this orb was extremely strong. No matter the severity of the injuries faced by the person who consumes it, they could instantly recover. Even ordinary people who consume it could acquire an undying and imperishable body, but this was far from enough.

Then, Chen Lan added a large amount of Soul Dao Power into it and fused a fragment of his own soul. As he clasped his hands together, a body identical to him appeared before him.

Suddenly, this body opened its eyes, initially vacant, but upon seeing Chen Lan, they gradually became clear, kneeling instantly, "Master."

"Rise."

Examining the created corporeal form thoroughly, Chen Lan nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, a perfect recreation of my appearance, still as handsome, and my essence too. Though, looking naked feels rather awkward."

With a wave of his hand, a white robe appeared on the clone, rendering it quite presentable.

"For now, hide yourself. If any Supreme Treasure appears on Blue Star, go seize it and do your utmost to grow stronger," Chen Lan spoke nonchalantly.

The sole purpose of this body was to remain alive because he had his soul stored within it. If he were to die and his soul shattered, he could still use this body to resurrect. Although the cultivation level of this body was only at the Supreme Great Emperor stage, as long as there's life, there is hope infinite. Living is everything.

He also placed Supreme Treasures, Elixirs, and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he couldn't use into the storage ring, left with the clone.

Since these were useless to him but beneficial for the clone, if it could grow stronger in his absence, it would be wonderfully favorable.

"Yes!" The clone nodded heavily.

With a wave from Chen Lan, the clone instantly vanished.

Chen Lan could sense that it found a hidden place to hide and immediately began cultivating.

This is an obedient clone, bound never to betray him because he set limits within it. As for why the old man in the Desolate Celestial Realm didn't impose limits or how the manifestation in the Immortal Suppression Tower betrayed, he had no way of knowing.

In any case, a manifestation that generates betrayal is a grave taboo, unbearable to tolerate.

"Next, it's time to ascend to the higher realm."

…

"Useless, a bunch of useless fools. I asked you to bring down the Three Lives Stone, and yet, you hadn't even taken it out before being wiped out by Ye Lan, making you utterly worthless!"

The Celestial Emperor scolded Yama and King Qin Guang with frustration. He had sent them to bring down the Three Lives Stone to find who Lady Houtu mentioned.

And yet, they hadn't even retrieved the stone before engaging with Chen Lan, losing to him. They were soundly defeated, their shadows shattered, and their true bodies dropped in realm, utterly disgraceful!

This thoroughly shamed the Underworld!

"Your Highness, Celestial Emperor, it's really not our fault. As soon as we descended, the battle had already begun. In the heat of the moment, we joined in. Ye Lan was truly absurdly strong. You didn't see; he struck down Ye Qingmu with one sword strike," Yama found himself speechless with bitter explanation.

Did anyone think they wanted to be wiped out? Ye Lan was truly absurd, cutting down Ye Qingmu with one sword, and besting Yang Jian. If the Jade Emperor hadn't intervened, Yang Jian probably wouldn't have made it out.

With the power of the Divine Bone, Ye Lan was indeed extraordinary.

Upon hearing, the Celestial Emperor's heart trembled. He hadn't been paying attention to the affairs of the lower realm, being instead preoccupied with pondering over who the person was that Lady Houtu spoke of.

Yet to his surprise, so many happenings transpired below. That Ye Qingmu, he had heard of, being a Taoist Saint of the Ye Family, had been cut down with one strike by Ye Lan. Could it be that Ye Lan...

"His Divine Bone regenerated?" the Celestial Emperor spoke in astonished inquiry, suspecting no other possibility.

"Indeed, his Divine Bone regenerated, strength multiplying several times. None of us combined could match him," King Qin Guang nodded solemnly, recalling the scene with a chill running down his spine, wracked with fear.

Chen Lan's terrifying figure was engraved deep in his heart, never to be forgotten. How could such a formidable person exist in this world?

It defied the natural order.

Receiving a confirmed answer, the Celestial Emperor's body shuddered, pupils contracted. Though he wasn't from the Desolate Celestial Realm, he had heard countless rumors, most being about Ye Lan.

Ye Lan in the Desolate Celestial Realm could be spoken of as both god and demon, executing his deeds with extreme audacity, generally disregarding all others, yet had the capability to do so with his sheer powerful Divine Bone!

His transference of the Divine Bone to Ye Long wasn't widely known; only a few grand entities, like the Celestial Court, the Underworld, and the eight Holy Lands, or influential large families were aware. Lesser powers didn't qualify to know; they only heard of Ye Lan being banished into the lower realms and presumed him dead, not realizing he not only survived but emerged stronger still.

Now with a regenerated Divine Bone, he might ascend once again to the Desolate Celestial Realm, and with many Blue Star souls detained, he would likely first target him.

"From now, the Underworld is closed to outsiders," the Celestial Emperor spoke coldly.

Having said this, he turned, prepared to leave.

Yet just then, Yama's terrified voice rang from behind.

"Your Highness, Celestial Emperor, the Three Lives Stone is glowing!"

Upon these words, the Celestial Emperor snapped his head back, eyes widening in an instant.

There sat the Three Lives Stone in Yama's hand, glowing indeed!
